074 Shadow Moon XV

"It's time, go!" Said Ruby through the comm.

Arc was sitting on the sofa with Tiffa and Ash by his sides and Jarvis standing from behind him. There are many kinds of snacks in front of him he was very relaxed. there wasn't any worry in his face he was relaxing in the sofa eating snacks like he was just watching some movie, Ash and Tiffa are the same, they are devouring the snacks in front of them, Tiffa is even teasing him about Mia and other things.

Ruby and Jem are watching the movements of the shadow unit under them. Then she paused and said, "Boss that's not fair I want to eat snacks too..."

Arc then look at Tiffa who was pretending she did nothing. "Hehe sorry Boss she heard me eating while were talking, so I told her we're eating snacks while watching them do a good job," said Tiffa sheepishly.

Looking at Tiffa he couldn't help shakes his head, he then said to Jem you can have as many snacks you want after this operation, the same goes to all shadow unit...

"Yay! You heard that guys do well and will be drowning in snacks soon hehe." Said Jem happily.

Ruby couldn't help shaking her head at Jem as well as her Boss. Cough cough! Arc almost chock when he heard Jem motivating her team with a snack. He was so embarrassed he immediately changes the topic, Tiffa, on the other hand, was giggling non-stop beside him as for Ash he keeps his head down but clearly he's doing his best not to laugh, only Jarvis remains silent without any emotions on his face.

Arc looks at Tiffa and said to Ruby, "Ruby looks like there someone here volunteered to become a shadow unit and be sent somewhere remote."

Tiffa stops laughing immediately, and said: "Boss I'm sorry I didn't do it in purpose." But Ruby's response almost sends her to tears. Boss just send her over I have a mission in the far north that needs a team leader she would be perfect for the job."

"Oh, that mission I really do think its perfect for sis Tiffa." Said Jem.

"No! I'm not going, I'm not going, Boss, you can't send me I have a very important job here," said Tiffa almost on the verge of crying.

This is a rare moment for them to have fun and conversing with their Boss, that even the always serious Ruby couldn't help but joins in. Even the emotionless Jarvis can be seen with a rare smile on his face. As for Ash, he tried to be as small as possible as to not get any attention but a smile is also hanging on his face.

Good thing Eve didn't let the conversation reach the shadow units that are having a serious operation. Otherwise, it would be a big loss of face.

Bang! That stops them from their conversation, a huge mutant that looks like a big humanoid lizard comes charging in front of a group of Shadow Units.

"That's a big mutant," said, Tiffa who already stops playing around although she still has slight tears in her eyes for playing around.

It's around 3 meters tall with a very muscular body, armed with a huge halberd and a rocket launcher was strapped on its back. Another rocket launcher can be seen on its feet. "It looks like that's the source of the explosion earlier, looks like a modified version of PLG E38 rocket launcher used by UG military. Said Ash pointing at the rocket launcher on the monitor.

"It's almost twice as big as regular rocket launchers, luckily no one was hit by the attack. Is that really a human mutant? That's the first time I see a human mutant that big," said Arc.

"That's because it's not a human mutant, According to my analysis I'm 87.8 % sure it is a lizard type Beast Lord," said, Eve.

"But if that's true then that's a little small for Beast Lord the smaller Beast lord I've seen is at least 5 meters, is there a possibility it's a hybrid?" Said Arc.

"We can't know for sure until we analyze its DNA," said Ruby.

Five Shadow Units is fighting the humanoid Lizard and a few minutes later the Head of the Lizard was cut off many wounds can be seen on its body, because unlike before Shadow Unit can now choose their preferred weapon among the five Shadow Unit who fought the Lizard two are equipped with dual short sword, one is equipped with a retractable spears one is using two carved daggers and one a flexible sword. There was a saying in the Shadow Unit that only an Expert can use Flexible Sword, it's not only because of the difficulty of using it but because their two Leaders are both using Flexible Sword, so it becomes a status symbol among the Shadow Unit.

When Ruby heard it she just shakes her head but didn't refute it mastering the use of a flexible sword is good for them as it can be used in a variety of ways and very easy to conceal. Jem however just laughed at it.

Arc then switch and look at Yuri's progress she led the group of 25 Shadow Unit their target is one of Chained Souls medium Base, according to Eve its one of the supply base of Chained Souls Yuri with a smile on her face directly charge at the Guards in front of the base before the guards can react Yuri's flexible sword is already on their necks it only took a second for Yuri to kill the two-guard she then immediately issues and order using hand gestures and the group of 25 divided into five groups and storm the medium base.

"She's quite good despite the fact she's using inferior body enhancement technology, how're her evaluations can we really trust her?" Ask Arc.

I think we can, Boss, I was monitoring her behaviors and Eve is constantly monitoring her she really does enjoys working for us and genuinely loyal. Said Ruby.

"I found no falsehood in all her action Boss," said Eve

"Very well give her the proper enhancement after this operation is over, but only her for now exclude Beru, Mikhail, and Mikasa for now." Said Arc.

In truth, he really can't trust any member of the criminal organization no matter how good they are acting, but since he gives them a second chance he plans to honor that promised, as long as they become loyal and follows the rules of Shadow Units and Shadow Moon. Those who are integrated into the organization will be treated fairly...
